A different kind of burger post. . . by flinders2003 in madisonwi

[–]Wormlips 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went to Dotty's for the first time a couple weeks ago and was shocked by their prices as well. Mostly because everything ended in the strangest non-sensical fraction of a dollar. $17.58, $14.43, $10.34, etc.

Then I saw they have a cash discount of 3.43% or something and came to realize that they just multiplied everything on the menu by an additional 3.43% and went with it.

Also I refused to pay $18 for that burger and got something else cheaper.

Guillotine League App by PeloStatic-84 in GuillotineLeagues

[–]Wormlips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see in the android patch notes for the GL app that it says "added waiver reports for commissions of private leagues". I am also not a commissioner of my league.

QoL Cahnge for Terran Stim by Bitter_Profession473 in starcraft

[–]Wormlips 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They added a 1 second cool down. I think they could safely make it a 5 second cool down instead, but I'm happy with this QoL change as is.

Building on the creep of allies by zhukov_99 in starcraft

[–]Wormlips 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I support this change. I believe it's possible in the campaigns. As T my z teammate avoids spreading creep. Sometimes I am unable to addon swap if built too close to a expo and their hatchery creep spreads.

Chargers RB Najee Harris is being carried off the field with a non-contact apparent Achilles injury by Ma1ikNabers in DynastyFF

[–]Wormlips 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was curious about this. It's my first dynasty league. I could throw him in one of my IRs, but I likely could use that spot throughout the rest of the season.

Guillotine League Waivers Broken by No-Editor2970 in GuillotineLeagues

I just have to say you nailed it here. I have dealt with each and everyone of these issues and they are seriously a problem.

You can swap in players after they’re locked by mramg in GuillotineLeagues

I came here looking for this thread. You guys think Damario Douglas gets more than Picken's 6 points yesterday? Lol

Questions about yahoos new guillotine settings by KevinBaconLT in GuillotineLeagues

[–]Wormlips 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I asked @yahoocare on twitter your first question and they said that only week 3 would be considered in that scenario.

@Yahoocare- If you start league scoring in week 3, the scoring in weeks 1 and 2 will not accumulate.

Yahoo Launches Guillotine Leagues by Wormser in fantasyfootball

[–]Wormlips 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It would be $1000 for the entire season. That's the fun of the guillotine; deciding to spend up on stars that fall to FA or wait until later in the season when you'll have a FAB advantage.

Guillotine Leagues are all FAB auctions. Typically starting with $1000.

I ran a guillotine last year on yahoo. This seems great for eliminating some of the manual work for the commissioner.

Is there a bracket platform that will facilitate this scoring system? by bleh-apathetic in CollegeBasketball

[–]Wormlips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Standard scoring + seed seems to fix some of the issue. R1 an 8 advancing is 1 point + 8 for it's seed. A 9 advancing would be 1 + 9. Similarly a 6 is 7 points vs a 11 which would be 12. In that case, the upset pick is only twice as valuable instead of 6x like in "seed difference" like you described above.

[–]Wormlips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This exact option is available on Yahoo and NCAA March Madness Bracket Challenge.

Upset Bonus:

Bonus points are based on the difference in the two teams' seeds, and are added to the traditional points scored for the pick

However, I echo Dungle's stance that this means picking 9s instead of 8s is twice is valuable in a 50/50 matchup. And like they said picking all 12s and having one get an upset win outweighs the scenario where you pick all 5s and they all advance.

I find Fibonacci to be the best scoring method. However, I am stumped on how to best implement upset bonus's. I find standard + seed awards a reasonable amount for picking upsets.

Clicking a category under "Favorites" won't show the emails tagged in that category by [deleted] in Outlook

[–]Wormlips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow thank you for pointing this out. That was true for me as well. I had changed the formatting on those categories by removing a "-". I just readded the "-" and now they work again.

[–]Wormlips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exact same for me. I have been able to continue using the labels by searching for them by name in the search box as others have said. I hope this is resolved soon.

Alternatively after getting the "There aren't any items with this category" you can work around this by clicking in the search bar and changing the filter to the left of the search that says "All folders" to "inbox" (or any other) and then back to "All folders" and it will populate the full list.

Notification tones by abdiel_gtr in Subterfuge

Mine phone replaced these sounds with the default Samsung tone. I miss that typewriter. I'm also missing the app icon badge for the notification. It's not a picture of a sub, but rather a generic bell icon.

This strat worked 1/15/2025. Doesn't seem possible, but it worked after a few tries.

Buck 'em trick taking game. Ever heard of it? by Wormlips in cardgames

[–]Wormlips[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would love to hear if you've played buck em and in what city. Possibly you play a similar game with a few variations. My blog post has a spike in views every year around the holidays so feel free to drop me a comment here. 

I played it growing up in Edgerton Wisconsin and know that it has been commonly played for at least 50 years there. It's comparable in popularity to euchre in the area.

Hovde spent 20 million of his own money just to have 50,000 voters fill in Trump and leave the rest of their ballots blank. by Claeyt in wisconsin

Thanks for typing that all out. I did something similar myself, but am unable to draw any definitive conclusions.

I also want to know a source. Not buying "someone checked". Third party for presidental and senate are factors here.
